What is the quality of a good tip?
-
I'm thinking of writing a tip. My past tips have not gone so well, they don't get a lot of views or votes and the votes are not so great, I don't think the tip is all that bad. I think a tip should be be a short bit of experience you can offer, not a full article. What are your thoughts? What makes a good tip?

Now when did that actually happen? I came to the states about 13 years ago and the wisdom at the time was 15%. Now suddenly everybody seems to be insisting that it's 20% now. I think it's a conspiracy by waiters. :suss:

I'll just pummel them with my blackjack, or take a swipe at them with my poker. If we have to, we can put them in solitaire-y confinement.

Yeah, 15% is the norm, but 20% if you think they are offering excellent service, and when you think they make less than minimum wage because of tips... I often just give out the 20....

No idea. Just post and pray !
Me, I'm dishonest. And a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest.
Honestly. It's the honest ones you want to watch out for...Yeah, but it's making my index go down. I thought I wrote a good tip and got a bad 2.67 rating I had a 4.67 rating before that tip and now it droped my overall rating to 3.67 or something.
